Richland County Democrats Vote for Obama

Richland County Democrats will officially cast their votes for President Barack Obama at precinct re-organization meetings across the county Saturday. 

By attending, citizens are automatically voting for Obama, the only candidate on the party's ballot. 

The meetings also are the first step for Democrats who want to be delegates at the 2012 Democratic National Convention in Charlotte.

Precincts will elect delegates to the county convention, who will elect delegates to the state convention, who will then elect delegates to the national convention. 

The Richland County Democratic Covention will be on March 17.

Anyone who voted in the Republican Primary is not eligible to be a delegate. 

Richland County Democrats will gather at their precincts at 10 a.m. 

Here are the precinct locations for the St. Andrews area. See the Richland County Democrats website for the full list.
